liz, i think you're completely right about the big point (ok, A big point) of the book being that idea about feeling the physics inside yourself... and why that can be so good and can be so bad. i've got to admit, this novel scared me a bit, as a physicist and as a person. as a physicist because justin is what (i think) every female science student dreads - that guy so smart he can't handle himself, not actively seeking to be arrogant maybe, but horrifically so because he doesn't respect other people. i hate the way he keeps calling dana "mind-proud," and how he compares it to other women being, for example, husband-proud. icky. anyway, obsession is so easy to fall into... and can have such awful consequences. on the other hand, justin's experience with "awful consequences" (his parents' death) comes not from science or obession but with a gentle love of music, something i think most people are taught is safe and lovely. i don't know - i think i'm going to be posting alot about these books, because although i read them two weeks ago i'm still sifting through what they've done to and in and around my brain. i'm looking forward to hearing what everyone has to say, very much, because i hope that'll give me the opportunity to sort out my own thoughts.
